Thanks for the review but this doesn't tell us how much improvement this heatsink give out. Can you tell us what temp you were gettting with the stock heatsink with the same setup before and after installing the Zalman?
Can you tell us your room and system temp?
...
The air temp in my house without airconditioning is about 80 degrees EDIT: 27C
...
with the stock fan at 100% and an additional slot cooler my 8800 ultra idled at about 57 degrees celsius and ran at load at about 70 degree celsius
...
It looks like ~8 degrees idle, ~11 degrees under load.
